"DIgiTech's RP Series processors are the most popular multi-effects processors in the world and the new RP360 XP and RP360 build upon that success with features that make them ideal performance and recording tools," said Scott Klimt, marketing manager, DigiTech.

The RP360 XP and RP360 feature an all-new design with a large LCD display, simplified control layout and three footswitches that let players easily access all the pedals' sounds, tweak them to their preferences and save their own personalised guitar tones. Amps and pedals can be configured in any order in the signal chain and can even be removed to simplify setting up your tone by using only the effects that are needed. Three footswitch modes provide flexible control during live performance - Stompbox mode provides 3 effect on/off footswitches, Preset mode gives the user preset up/down navigation through all the RP's presets, and Bank mode gives you direct access to 3 presets per bank. And the RP360XP's expression pedal lets players control any of the effects parameters on the fly.??
